While there is no surefire way of preventing oral cancer, there are several steps you can take to reduce your risk. Oral cancer screening is an important way to detect signs in the early stages, when the cancer is still treatable. At Prime Smile, our routine dental checkups include oral cancer screening with a comprehensive mouth examination.
Our dentists can assess your current health profile and lifestyle habits and provide you with advice accordingly. You can also receive preventive treatments, such as dental hygiene cleanings, to help you maintain optimal oral health.
Gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. If not detected and treated early, gum disease can progress to periodontal disease, leading to gum recession, bleeding, and permanent tooth loss. Replacing lost teeth is expensive; preventing gum disease is not. With Prime Smile, you can receive a thorough gum disease screening with a simple dental check-up.
Gum disease is not complicated to prevent. Routine dental check-ups and scaling to remove hardened plaque could save you a world of pain later. Our experienced dentists can determine your risk and recommend a long-term prevention plan.
Regular dental visits are vital for preventive care. Every six months, Prime Smile provides comprehensive oral exams, gum and oral cancer screenings, and fluoride exposure checks to detect early signs of disease or elevated risks.
Even with daily brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar accumulate. Scaling and polishing remove deposits, protecting teeth and gums. Dentists may recommend fluoride therapy or additional cleaning based on your assessment for long-term oral health.
Protective treatments strengthen teeth against future damage. Depending on your risk, dentists apply sealants or coatings to vulnerable tooth surfaces, prevent enamel erosion, and reduce the need for complex restorative work in the future.
Effective prevention occurs at home. Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss once daily, and follow dentist-recommended habits. Prime Smile guides patients to improve routines, maintain oral hygiene, and prevent decay and gum disease long-term.
A dentist can evaluate your brushing technique to ensure proper cleaning. Even without obvious issues, correct brushing prevents cavities, reduces sensitivity, and promotes lifelong oral health, making this a highly valuable preventive measure.
Many people are unsure how to floss correctly. Our dentists teach proper flossing techniques and integrate them into your daily routine. For those unable to floss, professional cleaning removes plaque and maintains gum health.
Type 2 diabetes increases risks of gum disease and dental infections. Prime Smile provides personalised coaching to protect oral health while managing blood sugar, helping patients prevent complications and maintain healthy teeth and gums.

Preventive dentistry focuses on protecting teeth and gums before problems develop. This includes regular dental checkups, professional cleaning, and guidance on daily oral hygiene to maintain long-term oral health and prevent disease.
Preventive care stops or slows cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss by addressing risks early. It helps patients avoid painful, complex, and expensive treatments later, saving time, discomfort, and money.
Adults should visit the dentist at least twice a year. Patients with higher risks, like diabetes or smoking, may require up to four or more checkups annually to maintain optimal oral health.
Routine checkups include scaling, polishing, fluoride therapy, protective fillings, and lifestyle counselling. These treatments strengthen teeth, protect gums, and reduce the risk of long-term damage or disease progression.
Regular cleaning and monitoring can prevent gum disease early. Preventive care reduces inflammation and stops gum problems from advancing to periodontal disease, lowering the risk of permanent tooth loss.
